The traffic lights stood firm at red And rushing chariots rumbled at the line, The steaming tyres hot from work Moving French red rose wine. In particular giant camion Hauling tank of stainless steel, Resting wide on balloon-like Michelins Cushioning outfit on even keel. As danger signals change to caution Hiss and whirr escape the machine, Brake cables stretch, releive the tension, Now the light shows go go green.

As the silver disc diminishes And blue haze diesel smoke remains, Inside my head, the gleaming monster Carrying cargo nostrils inflames. |
